“ Great Pho! They are always busy which is a great sign of a good place to eat! This is our second visit and it was just as good if not better than the first. ”
“ I always love Ly's - excellent rice & garlic noodle dishes! I especially like the 5-spice chicken - never oily - I've been going there for pick-up - for years - I live 2 blocks away - the crew there are also very courteous ”
“ Great spot to satisfy your Vietnamese food cravings in Cow Hollow. I recommend the chicken pho and Bún riêu. The flavors are well-balanced and tasty. We also ordered the grilled pork rice plate and I recommend ordering that, too. The service was friendly and there's ample seating. They were pretty busy for a Sunday evening and I noticed a good amount of people picking up takeout orders, as well. ”
“ Got the chicken pho Amazing chicken broth - very flavorful, perfect temperature and delicious after a cold winter evening of walking around The chicken breast was shredded but tender and not dry I added steamed tofu which was a great addition Friendly servers and they were pretty crowded even late on a Sunday night ”
“ Everything was good. Food prices were reasonable and the food is delicious. Service was fast & servings were of generous portions! Will definitely come back here and definitely recommend this place! ”
“ When I got there it was not very busy, so the service is pretty fast. It's cozy place, so nice for small group but not big gathering. Ordered two items. Spring Roll and Pho. The Spring roll is really good and has more filling than other places I visited. The pho is not bad, but I think the broth can use a bit of work. It overly sweet and does not have the depth of flavor other places have. Overall still a solid choice. ”
“ Reasonable prices, fast and friendly service in a casual no frills space on Lombard. One of the few decent Vietnamese spots in the immediate area. Recommend ordering rice and noodle dishes. The chicken and pork are pretty good and the garlic noodles are above average. The pho gets the job done - the broth is so-so the meat a little less plentiful than other places. At the price point it's fine but can't compete with other pho specialty spots. ”
“ Great neighborhood Vietnamese restaurant. Stopped by for a quick dinner and got the 3 Item Pho. Service was efficient and friendly. The inside is clean and they had the baseball game going on multiple TV screens. My food came out quickly. It met my expectations in terms of portions and price. Thumbs up! ”
“ Solid family dinner location in the Cow Hollow area. Immediately, I got the "local favorites" vibe and since I'm just a visitor, I'm not going to gatekeep this cute neighborhood restaurant. The service is friendly and helpful and we felt welcomed. The server/owner (?) talked enthusiastically and passionately about their broth and I appreciate places that take pride in the food they serve. I loved the Chicken Pho, large portion, herby broth, nice chewy noodles. The rest of my family all had nothing but good things to say about their choices as well. So, whatever noodle soup option you choose, I feel like you'll enjoy it. Recommend. ”
